What are they classifying as ai slop? Cause in YouTube there is a lot of low effort content that aren't slop, and there is also low effort content narrated by ai that I'd consider slop, and then there is actual ai slop
most of the shorts are slop.
Ehh there's a lot of low effort content on youtube, but I don't really see that much slop. Most of the low effort ones are just clips usually taken from twitch with minimal editing
Everything produced using any amount of generative AI is slop, without exception. Hope this clears up the confusion.
I looked up the article the og source referenced, which does say what they defined as ai slop.
The original article isn't helpful because statistics don't mean anything if they don't also define what they're measuring, and they cut the definition short.
i posted a lot but if i do not think its good i take it down after a few days
